Most of us in our childhood dreamed of having our own little house on the tree, as a refuge from annoying parents, as a special secret place where we could hold top-secret club meetings or perhaps even put some experiments. Some, by the way, still dream about such a house.
Interesting is the fact that in some countries a tree house is not considered something exotic, but quite natural and everyday. In New Guinea, for example, people of Korowai live in houses on trees, thereby protecting their homes from predators and floods.
Fortunately, the house on the tree has long ceased to be a fairy tale, but more turned into the embodiment of a childhood dream by professional designers and architects. Many companies have long developed projects of hotels made in the style of houses on the tree, with a high level of comfort and convenience inside. Some of them even consist of more than one floor.
We are pleased to present you the 17 most amazing designs of houses on the tree, which in our opinion deserve special attention.

This truly unusual and outstanding construction is the work of hands, or rather the matter of thought and money, Joanne Ussary, who decided to make a house from Boeing 727, which can also be called a house on a tree. The cost of the Boeing 727 was $ 2,000 to hang it over the ground, it also had to pay $ 4,000, and the construction of the whole house cost $ 24,000, which is generally not so expensive, but very original.
